still no. I wouldn't compare this to Arrival in any way

almost a million, i'll take it

I am hoping to hear numbers about the previews soon. I know it won't get a huge number even for the OW but I'm more interested in how this does than anything else right now.

not really at all actually

I feel like I should talk more since it was just more about themes and ideas in the last post. This is a beautifully, creepy, thought provoking film that many don't have the guts to even try. The eerie soundtrack is top notch and keeps the intensity of the movie on the right level. Even a scene from the trailer made the guy next to me jump when the person was taken into the hut on the swamp. Every character has a point and their life story adds to the plot and to the dangers around them. The words "shiny, shimmering, splendid" don't just belong to an Aladdin song anymore

Ah yes, the bear was pretty awesome and sad at the same time. Nice addition I also like when the one person let herself turn ino the human flower too

lots of ideas doing on here from self destruction to not be able to stop the inevitable and have to stand by and let it happen, to religious ideas for some people, things coming together and living in harmony, or just coming together literally needing a reason to live, etc etc The film does handle a lot of ideas and was never too heavy handed for any of them. In fact the idea that all people are self destructive leads to the "alien" destroying the base and the Shimmer due to cloning Lena. Or did it destroy the Shimmer? the last scene does keep questions open on some things and may even open new questions. They never touched on it in the movie, but I take it that you can tell when the shimmer started to merge with people and maybe taken over due to the tattoos on their left forearm. I maybe reading into in my own way, but it took it as they merged and will continue to be together "forever" due to it being the infinity symbol but yeah there are many ideas and interpretations that people will come up on their own and maybe completely different than others. I think I will stick with an A- for this one

I, personally, don't think the GA will like this as much as Arrival. But never know, but I can see people not "getting it" or not liking some parts I would guess not the best legs due to what I just wrote above about possibly the GA not liking it as much. but hey, maybe it will grab its own audience and stick around for a while

It's just as good though. I don't need chocolate milk but it's not a step down either. now skim milk should be just outlawed since it's clear blue water anyway

hey, don't disrepect the man. He won a gold medal with a broken friggin' neck......before all the mug shot stuff happened

I guess me, @That One Guy and Kurt Angle do this every day

1. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle - B+ 2. Star Wars: The Last Jedi - A- 3. The Post - B+ 4. Black Panther - C+ 5. Annihilation - A-

so am I to take out of this that he believes chocolate milk comes from brown cows or something?

I'll take that as a no for the busy at school part

while I've only seen 4 movies this year before this one and this is either first or second best so far for me

hopefully school will make the day go faster since you will be busy. Assuming you are busy at school that is

hope you enjoy it so just go to sleep for about 22 hours and then you can wake up and just go see it

let's just say that like Spaceballs, they hate when their schwartz get twisted

thanks for the information. I will check out prices and go from there. But yeah I like the ideas of the movie so sounds like the book may work for me

ummm...that's spoilerish so I can't go into reptilian dongs and anatomy here

done and done since I did it twice

oh, everyone was good in it and there are definitely scenes that will stick with you. so yeah there are a couple disturbing things for some people I am sure too debating on a score for it, hovering in the A-/B+ range at least, for me

Just got home. hopefully I didn't miss an end credits scene overall, I enjoyed it. I don't think it's as nuts as some are saying, but that could just be me and I obviously can't go into it much in this thread. But wouldn't mind going into it in some thread or place It's very beautiful and I think what it wanted to do, it did well. However, yes I can see it not being for everyone I may get into the books since apparently it's a series of them?

In the theater now. Watching Noovie so in about 20 minutes the fun should begin
